While I'm a bit sour about the changes, especially after certain SerB's statement that "they we're already balanced with higher tiers in mind", I can see that while speed and acceleration (the second one is seriously wtf moment) nerf will hurt, the view range buff will create an awesome passive scout. Colour me intrigued.

SerB states that apart from the Luchs, the other vehicles being lifted up one tier didn't really have to be rebalanced, as they were balanced around tier 5 and 6 previously already (they were balanced one tier higher)confirmed: Leopard and VK2801 won't get buffed (SS: apart from the HP? unclear) when they are pushed one tier higher, nothing will change for them
